The Orange Police Department has adopted a philosophy of partnering with the community. The use of dedicated volunteers is one way of incorporating this philosophy. The OPD Volunteer Program is made up of Orange residents who have successfully graduated from the Citizen Police Academy and decided they want to give back to their community.
